Chapter 309: Leopold'S Strange Sensation

Chapter 309: Leopold's strange sensation

The light in the living room flickered on, and a calm face appeared behind her.

Leopoldo's eyes flickered, and then he led Mariana back into the room.

As soon as the sleeping Mariana lay down, she hooked her arms around Leopoldo's neck and pouted

in confusion.

-No...

Originally, the words spoken from dreams were nothing, but when they fell on the man's ear, they

somehow made his heart beat fast and his face burn.

Leopoldo quickly walked away and returned to his room.

Mariana did not see the way Leopoldo hurried out. She was so tired that she fell asleep as soon as her

mind went blank.

Falling asleep at the table was not a very comfortable experience, and Mariana woke up the next day

with a groggy head, probably after having overused her brain.

She scratched her disheveled hair.

Her brow furrowed as some voices and vague memories flashed through her mind, but she couldn't

recall the events of the night before.

She sighed and rubbed her temples in thought:

"Staying up too late hurts my brain, I can't do it again."

Mariana sat on the bed for a while before getting up.

After washing up, she poured herself a glass of juice to clear her head before starting to prepare

breakfast.

She had plenty of ingredients in the fridge and took out what she needed to make sandwiches.

When Leopoldo left the room, Mariana was carrying the sandwiches to the table.

When she saw Leopoldo, she smiled slightly and nodded in greeting.

Leopoldo nodded back.

Mariana lifted the plate of sandwiches in her hands.

-Do you want some?

Leopoldo looked at her silently.

Mariana tilted her head to one side. She had actually fallen asleep the night before without realizing

what she had done and without thinking that she had unconsciously embraced Leopoldo.

The frankness of her eyes made Leopoldo not know how to speak.

He shook his head and whispered:

-No.

He looked at the watch in his hand and said:

-I'm going to work.

When he finished, he looked up to see Mariana staring at him.

Mariana's bright eyes and warm lips reminded him of the way she had nuzzled his neck the night

before and pouted, and the image replayed over and over in his mind.

Leopold froze for a moment.

He had never seen such a soft side of Mariana and Leopoldo got a lump in his throat not knowing how

to deal with such a Mariana, so he stormed out.

Mariana shrugged and sat down at the table for breakfast.

"I have a drawing to do later, so I need to recharge my energy."

She looked at the sandwich in her hand. They had a simple combination of ingredients that not only

filled his stomach, but also tasted good.

He suddenly stopped his mouth and looked at it.

"The color is so vivid that it will just suck everyone in."

A flash of inspiration came to her mind and an idea for a simple design took shape.

Mariana quickly finished the rest of her sandwich, took a few sips of milk and ran to her design desk.

Before she could stop moving, she pulled out a pen, took out her electronic sketch pad and jotted on it.

Mariana didn't even have time to sit down and concentrated on the design at hand.

She needed to quickly draw what was in her head.

The contest was all about simplicity, but too much simplicity could be boring.

She thought of several evening gowns. Simple, generous dresses would add a lot of color, but evening

gowns were too big.

She wanted something more everyday.

After two hours of work, Mariana finally drew a design she was happy with.

She refined some simple evening gowns, based on the idea that simplicity was not a feature, and

turned them into acceptable everyday dresses for the public.

She looked at the design with satisfaction and sent a digital copy of it to her manager.

It was her day off and she could stay off work, so Mariana relaxed on the couch and lay there for half

an hour without the manager's response.

She turned off the computer and went to wash her face, but suddenly her cell phone rang.

Mariana saw it was the manager and picked up the phone.

-Hello?

The manager on the other end sounded happy.

-You're so nice. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Mariana knew he was referring to the design.

-What do you think?

The manager laughed twice and said:

-Well, very good, Too good to be true.

-Then production can begin.

Mariana also wore a slight smile.

-That's for sure! Mariana, this time you have done a great project! -The manager was delighted.

-What do you mean by that?

Now it was Mariana's turn to be puzzled.

The manager on the other end of the line began to explain.

The concept art for the collection has just hit the shelves and pre-sales have tripled and are still

growing. It's been a long time since I've seen presales increase, and the company is very pleased.

-Really? That's great.

Mariana's voice also had a little more surprise and joy in it.

There was nothing better than being recognized.

-Well done. The company has decided to give you a bonus in return," the manager said happily.

-Thanks to the company and thanks to you.

Hearing that there was money to be received, Mariana was instantly happy.

Not only did she accomplish the task, but she received a bonus.

-This time the financial bonus will be credited to your account right away. Keep up the good work next

time and I look forward to your next work!

-Good.

Mariana talked some more with the manager and hung up the phone.

A generous bonus was about to arrive and Mariana was in a good mood.

She immediately asked Ana for an appointment.

After agreeing on a time and place, Mariana set off.

When she arrived, Ana was already waiting for her at the door.

Seeing her smile, Ana smiled and asked:

-Why are you in such a good mood today?

-I got a nice bonus for the pre-sale of my design, so I thought I'd go out to dinner with you," said

Mariana with raised eyebrows and continued. So, do you want to do something crazy?

At that moment, Ana patted her on the shoulder.

-Sure! Today I'm going to "kill" you for real.

-Whatever you want.

The two joked and laughed as they walked into the restaurant.

This restaurant was very popular on the Internet, exquisitely decorated with mean humor.

The food was good and the atmosphere was nice, so Mariana wanted to come here with Ana when she

was free.

Mariana made a reservation.

When she arrived, the waiter guided them to their seats.

When Ana and Mariana sat down, they both froze for a moment.

Not far from their seats were two familiar people eating together.
